{"product_id":"cuarzo-aura-dorado","title":"Golden Aura Quartz Pendant","description":"\u003cp\u003eGold aura quartz point pendant in an electroformed copper setting. The crystal displays a warm champagne-gold hue produced by vacuum gold deposition on natural quartz. The highly textured and organic copper setting wraps around the raw end of the crystal, integrating the reliefs inherent in the electroforming process.

This gives it a more mineral than jewelry-like appearance, different from the circular ring of the blue versions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gold crystal has a visible transition zone between the intense champagne of the tip and the more neutral tone at the raw end, captured well in the photograph on selenite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAura Quartz: What is PVD Coating?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGold aura quartz is obtained by depositing gold vapors (or alloys with titanium) onto natural quartz in a high-temperature vacuum chamber. The result is a permanent atomic layer coating (PVD) that gives it the champagne-gold hue. The color does not fade or rub off, unlike conventional electroplating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAura crystal requires no special care. For copper: zip bag or closed box, no water or perfumes, dry cloth for cleaning.

Its hexagonal crystal and transparency gave it symbolic value that surpassed its geological abundance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn crystal tradition, gold aura quartz is associated with abundance, warmth, and creative confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe symbolic properties of minerals belong to cultural traditions.

In any case, it is an atomically thin layer on natural quartz, not solid gold. It is declared as PVD coating in the product details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the color wear off with use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. PVD adheres the metal to the crystal at an atomic level. Unlike electroplating, it does not disappear with normal use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I care for the jewelry?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStore in a zip bag or closed box.
